Final Exams and Diagnostic Essays

Diagnostic Essays

At the beginning of each semester it is important to get a baseline writing sample
from students. Sometime during the first week, have students write an introductory
sample to help you diagnose their writing skills and strategies.

Final Exams

All teachers are responsible for designing and administering their own final exams.

These exams should be in-class, timed writings or reflective essays that ask students
to demonstrate their learning and progress in the class.

All exams must be administered according to the times and dates listed in the Registration
Bulletin.
